Smoker


form the clocklint into a collar

form the sugar into a shelter

form the sweat into a sob

form the soldier into a glisten

form the stumble into an eel

form the swatting into a drivewheel

form the tumbler into a crystal

form the bathtub into a gopher

form the shingle into a wallet

form the icecube into a sweatbee

form the washcloth into a speech

form the twaddle into a smoker





Bowl


clock your shrinking at the boiler hole

clock your starching at the whistle leg

clock your folding at the stomach test

clock your scowling at the bummer core

clock your fueling at the tendon ice

clock your clambake at the sweating door

clock your faucet at the thumbing card

clock your stairway at the gaping roof

clock your pocket at the redhot coin

clock your fondling at the hostile lips

clock your shoelace at the congealing grease

clock your limbo at the crowded bowl
